I've been a teacher for over 15 years, but after a new head started in September it's all gone wrong.
I was out on a support plan after Easter and was told I'd be going on to capability (formal) after May half term if I didn't resign. I had union advice, but the only 'settlement' they would agree to was for me to resign. It wouldn't go to formal and they'd write a decent reference.
I wholeheartedly disagree with the faults they found, but it was my word against SLT and no hope to fight.
So now. I have no job after August, hardly anything is being offered and I am so, so worried about money. We live in an expensive area due to husband's job (can't move for 2 years at least), so any job won't pay the bills.
What can I do? I hear of people finding jobs after leaving, but I don't even know where to start. I only ever wanted to teach, but the last year has been hell. I'm no longer stressed at work, but I'm awfully stressed about finding a job.
